F7010

Safety related limited increment exceeded

Indramat · Indradrive

What does F7010 mean?

This safety fault indicates that a safety-related monitored increment of position has been exceeded. This is part of safe motion monitoring functions (e.g., Safe Incremental Position) which ensure that the axis does not move more than a defined distance within a specific timeframe or under certain conditions.

Common Causes

  • Unexpected or uncontrolled motion of the axis.
  • Incorrectly configured safety-related increment limit parameters (e.g., S-0-0XXX Safe Incremental Position Limit).
  • Faulty position feedback (encoder) providing incorrect actual position values.
  • Mechanical looseness or backlash leading to unintended motion.

Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    Verify the configured safety-related increment limit parameters in the IndraDrive against the safety requirements of the machine.

  2. 2

    Check for any mechanical issues (e.g., play, backlash, loose couplings) that could cause uncontrolled motion.

  3. 3

    Inspect the position encoder for proper operation, secure mounting, and reliable signal output.

  4. 4

    Review the control logic and commands to ensure that no unintended motion commands are being issued.

  5. 5

    Recalibrate the position feedback system if necessary.
